Archive for November, 2011

December was the tenth month of the Roman calendar but had no particular association for them. However, December is also a modern month filled with holidays. So, the themes for this month on the Sea of Stars design journal will be Winter, festivals and gift: cursed gifts, divine gifts, magical gifts or gift of all flavors. If there is a particular idea inspired by the themes that you would like to see expanded upon, let me know and I will try to realize it.

Tomorrow is the meteorological start of Winter and we have a cold snap here to prove that point.

Scarf

Scarf of Warmth

These heavy scarves are tightly woven and never seem to fray or wear. Often they bear a pattern showing their maker somewhere in the weave.

The scarf is a very simple magic item, it, combined with sensible clothes, keeps the wearer warm is just about any chill climate and the wind will never blow it open or away. The magic is so effective that it also provides a +1 resistance bonus to saves against cold attack.

For a short adventure, this product is entirely a solid one for a night of play. Depending on the group of characters involved, however, the GM may wish to increase the opposition slightly to make it a bit more challenging.

Sir Oglethan cursed and reigned in his mount as he found the path through the forest blocked by a palisade of sharpened stakes. “Again! Where do these rebel find the time to construct these barriers!? We were hot on their heels!”

“I wonder where they get the wood,” muttered Sandol, one of his men-at-arms, scanning the forest for an ambush. His vigilance was rewarded as he brough up his shield to deflect a crude spear from the undergrowth. “We are attacked!” he shouted.

Bamboo

“Kill them!” screamed Oglethan, hacking at the bushes. Sandol stabbed half-heatedly at the trees and wondered if this would ever end.

Gouqua’s Bamboo Spear

These primitive weapons were first used by the rebel Gouqua in his revolt against the colonial forces of the Quach Imperialists. They appear as hardened bamboo spears, wrapped in places with cord to reinforce them, and decorated with a slogan of the rebellion painted in ink.
